You can create a complete system by connecting a pair
of DSP8000 loudspeakers directly to a digital source.
The DSP loudspeakers include volume, balance, and
tone controls allowing you to control the system using
an MSR+.
If the Meridian source or control unit includes a
Meridian SpeakerLink output, such as the Meridian
808.3 CD Player, you can make all the connections
using SpeakerLink leads. The Meridian SpeakerLink
connection provides both two-channel digital audio and
Meridian Comms control.
This is an alternative to the "daisy chain" wiring
configuration shown in the next section.
•
Connect the upper SpeakerLink output from the
Meridian product to the SpeakerLink input on
the DSP8000 chosen as the master, using a
SpeakerLink lead.
•
Connect the lower SpeakerLink output from the
Meridian product to the SpeakerLink input on the
other (slave) DSP8000, using a second SpeakerLink
lead.
